Are you by chance using a loop? IMO, you should
be able to break those signals up and decipher
amongst the two....maybe three.

The HQ145XC is an extremely nice piece and coupled with a nice
loop....is almost tailor made for that scenario.


I have the Terk/Radio Shack passive loop for use on my portables. How
could I use that with the HQ?
I believe that South Florida gets "targeted" by the Cuban AM'ers.
Doesn't the Cuban 880 have something like 100,000kW's?
Hopefully, when "winter" comes to Florida I can try for the East Coast
AM stations. I was listening to WPHT, 1210, and then it got swamped by
a Cuban station! Can't win here!


CF, if you have the RS loop with the knob on one end, there is a
mini plug on the other end. but, i'm not sure which loop you have.
